European Education Leaders Welcomed to EDGE

Last week we welcomed a delegation of school leaders and education policy makers from Norway and the Netherlands to Caterham.  As part of a visit to BETT, where Mr Adam Webster launched Sphinx AI’s EdTech products last week, they came to visit Caterham as they were interested to learn more about our approach to innovation and education, our role as an Apple Distinguished School and our EDGE curriculum. 

After a discussion led by our team on the approach we have taken to introduced technology at school and innovation in the curriculum, the group took a tour of our school and saw some First Year EDGE lessons in action.  Our pupils spoke to them about their Architecture project & design challenge providing insight into EDGE’s collaborative, interdisciplinary approach to learning.  Our visitors were hugely impressed by what they saw and inspired by our pupils’ engagement with and enthusiasm for their learning. We hope that we will continue this dialogue in the future and have the opportunity to learn from their educational philosophies.
